Excellent and fascinating article. The only way this will end is intervention by federal law enforcement, perhaps by formally proscripting DNS servers to route visitors to a law enforcement site that reports that IP address as a criminal enterprise, and ideally, also providing a link to info on the particular legal hold that was placed on this fraudster so visitors will be informed and can investigate further if they desire. I continue to be astonished at how disengaged federal law enforcement continues to be at today's myriad internet-based crimes. If we need more staff to investigate and prosecute the volume of net-based crime, then the FBI / FCC / FTC should hire more people dammit. What's the argument against doing this, I wonder?
